‘Something happy?’

Aiden swallowed. To be honest, he was actually looking forward to it.

Sophia seemed to have seen through his thoughts and rolled her eyes. “Are you dreaming? I want to make this place look more normal. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, we are here to get a room. Everything we do must be logical, or else it will arouse the suspicion of the ferocious beasts.”

“Oh.” Aiden nodded awkwardly, disappointed beyond words.

After messing up all the furnishings in the room and creating traces of use, they sat on the bed. Sophia leaned against the headboard with her eyes narrowed, her fair feet swaying from time to time, tempting one’s heartstrings. Meanwhile, Aiden hid at the end of the bed and sat up straight, trying his best not to think about those dirty things.

Logically speaking, any other man would be happy to be in the same bed as a girl with such a perfect figure and appearance. However, Aiden felt a little tormented.

It was not that he did not like women, but he could not afford to offend this young lady in front of him, so he naturally did not dare to like her.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Suddenly, Aiden’s phone rang. He looked down and saw a text message from Professor Martin. There were only two short sentences on it. “We’re almost there. Get ready to do it.”

Aiden perked up and quickly stood up. Sophia, who was beside him, also stood up. “They’re here?”

“Right.” Aiden picked up the employee’s uniform and handed the smaller one to Sophia, who was also very straightforward. She immediately removed the towel. Although she was wearing underwear, Aiden couldn’t help but be stunned by her fair skin.

“Hurry up and change. What are you looking at?” Sophia glared at him and muttered, “Hooligan.”

Aiden rubbed his nose and smiled awkwardly. Then, he turned around and slowly changed his clothes.

After putting on her clothes, Sophia took out the bottle that Professor Martin gave her, opened it, and poured it on the cake.

Aiden watched from the side with a complicated look in his eyes. He had never thought that he would help someone kill his wife one day, even if the other party was a vicious beast.

When everything was ready, the two of them went to the window and looked at the people coming and going outside.

After a while, a car stopped below the hotel. Professor Martin, wearing a black suit, opened the car door and walked out.

“Here we go.”

Aiden was shocked. He saw Professor Martin walk round to the front passenger seat and open the door. A blonde woman in a long red dress got out of the car. She turned and gently punched Professor Martin’s chest like a spoiled child.

The two hugged each other. The woman looked at Professor Martin affectionately. Even from afar, Aiden could feel the deep love in the woman’s every move.

“That’s… his wife?”

Aiden hesitated for a moment. No matter how he looked, the two didn’t seem suspicious of each other, despite what Professor Martin said.

“I think so.” Sophia nodded in agreement.

The two did not seem to have any intention of entering the hotel for a while. They chatted downstairs.

Aiden looked at them and suddenly thought of a problem. He turned to look at Sophia. “I remember you said before that Ferals don’t have a real reproductive system.”

“Yes.” Sophia nodded, then looked at Aiden in confusion. “Why do you ask?”

“Then Professor Martin and his wife…” Aiden pointed at the two below. “They’ve been married for so long. It’s impossible that they haven’t slept together, right?”

Wouldn’t he be exposed if he slept with her? It was just like how Lily wanted to kill him the moment she sensed the abnormality in his body. If Professor Martin’s wife was also a berserk beast, how did he survive until now?

“There are differences between human women and beasts in this aspect.”

Aiden paused. “Differences? How so?”

“My father said so.” Sophia’s expression was calm as she explained, “I awakened when I was very young. The first human I met was my father.”

“Yes.” Aiden nodded. He had heard her mention this before.

“According to my father, my mother was a ferocious beast.”

“Huh?”

Aiden was flabbergasted. His father was human, and his mother was a vicious beast?

When he looked shocked, Sophia Harry explained, “It’s my stepmother.”

“Oh.” Aiden nodded. No wonder.

“My father said that after my original mother died, my stepmother took the initiative to approach him. However, after the two of them slept together, he sensed that something was wrong. How should I put it? It was different from before.”

“And then he Awakened?” Aiden didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This Awakening was too hasty.

But Sophia Harry nodded. “My father told me that if you’ve never had sex with a human before, you won’t notice no matter how many times you have sex with a beast. But once you do, you’ll notice that something’s wrong.”

Aiden was about to nod, but he quickly realized the problem.

“But when Lily discovered my abnormality, she immediately planned to devour me. Why didn’t anything happen to your father, Professor Martin, and the others?”

“That’s because you’re unlucky.”

Sophia gave him a rather sympathetic look.

“Swallowing Beasts are an extremely greedy and cruel vicious beast race. Sometimes, they will even devour Fools. However, there are very few of these cruel vicious beasts, and they usually won’t take the initiative to expose themselves, because devouring their own kind would exacerbate their death.”

After a pause, she continued, “My father and Professor Martin should have met Fools, and the Lily you met happened to be a young Devourer. I’m sure you’ve experienced its desire for Awakened.”

“Yes…” Aiden felt his scalp go numb at the thought of what had happened back then. If that was the case, then he really was quite unlucky.

However, when he recalled what Sophia had done to him in the storeroom, he could not help but be curious.

“Come to think of it, how do you know so many details? Or… do you have experience in this area?” Aiden’s face was serious. He swore that he didn’t have any dirty thoughts in his heart. He just wanted to discuss it.

‘Well, yes.’

“No.” Sophia Harry shook her head. “Father told me all this when he left. And there’s only the difference between male Ferals and normal humans.”

With that, she glanced at Aiden’s groin with a half-smile.

Aiden couldn’t help but blush as he recalled the ‘test’ that day.

“Father didn’t tell me about women.” Sophia suddenly looked at Aiden.

“Why don’t… we do it once?”
